Mathematica is a universal interactive computer algebra application system with advanced graphical user interface.
On the HPC ressources at GWDG there are four network licences available for Mathematica.
The dialog server and frontend nodes of the HPC ressources at GWDG can be reached directly only inside the GoeNet network. Login to gwdu101 (or alternatively to gwdu102) via:
ssh -Y gwdu101
For the connection from Microsoft clients use an appropriate software like X-Win32.
If your connection to gwdu101 is refused you might not have the permission to use the HPC ressourcen. You can request this permission by a short email to mailto:hpc@gwdg.de.
If you want to use the service from outside GoeNet, first login to login.gwdg.de and then proceed as above.
First prepare the necessary environment with:
module load mathematica
The use of Mathematica then will be scheduled by the batch system in the interactive queue onto a free ressource. Therefore the following command to the batch system is necessary:
bsub -ISs -XF -q int /bin/bash
after a short time period you will get a Shell prompt and you can call Mathematica in the command line version with the command:
math
or in the X11 window version with the command:
mathematica
The current version is printed as the first line of the output.
